The Shikoku - Kyushu Island League announced on Friday that they are officially recognizing the Fukuoka Red Warblers and a Miyazaki club as semi members of league. This means that both clubs are one step closer to becoming official teams of the Island League.

They also announced that Fukuoka will be sitting out of the 2010 season due to insufficient funds and will hopefully be back in full swing for the 2011 season.
